Chris Wagner wrote: That was a pretty nice demonstration of the diabolical power of references. ;) I think this illustrates one of the soft underbellies (read: feature) of Perl, which is that with unrestricted references ur never quite sure what entity it is ur dealing with. I've never been a real fan of the reference system. Atleast give us a choice to whether reference or pointer constructs. Right now sometimes u have to guess what Perl is doing behind ur back and a lot of times it can come back to bite u. I know it's nailed me quite a few times. If I had my way implicit args would be abolished and I'ld really really love to see real arrays. But now I digress. Maybe a new pragma: use superstrict; or use strongtyping; Which would arn you if you try to do anything questionable and then we'd need an accompanying override symbol (if all the symbols haven't already been used up) that says I know what I'm doing on this one, so don't warn me. I'm sure there are lots of people asking for stronger typing in the future that could prevent lots of these gotchas. -- ,-/- __ _ _ $Bill LuebkertMailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (_/ / )// // DBE CollectiblesMailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] / ) /-- o // // Castle of Medieval Myth Magic http://www.todbe.com/ -/-' /___/__/_/_http://dbecoll.tripod.com/ (My Perl/Lakers stuff) ___ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs

The bottom line is, you go out an buy some standard Perl books, you program the way it's shown there. Things seem to always work correctly until one day you write a function named reset(), assuming that when you call it, it will actually be executed, just like all the other functions you've used for years, but it's not. Does it mean your boss gets incorrect data? Does it mean the space shuttle crashes? Who knows? I'll bet if you asked 90% of Perl programmers what 'reset' does - they won't have any idea. That should tell you something. I'll also bet that if you look at 90% of Perl code, you won't see what you characterize as good practice.

Re: function named reset()
Here's something I found on the 'perldiag' man page: Ambiguous call resolved as CORE::%s(), qualify as such or use (W ambiguous) A subroutine you have declared has the same name as a Perl keyword, and you have used the name without qualification for calling one or the other. Perl decided to call the builtin because the subroutine is not imported. To force interpretation as a subroutine call, either put an ampersand before the subroutine name, or qualify the name with its package. Alternatively, you can import the subroutine (or pretend that it's imported with the use subs pragma). To silently interpret it as the Perl operator, use the CORE:: prefix on the operator (e.g. CORE::log($x)) or declare the subroutine to be an object method (see Subroutine Attributes in the perlsub manpage or the attributes manpage). However, I can't get this warning to appear. Is it that 'reset' isn't a 'keyword'? Simple example script below. Note that, as mentioned by others, if I change the line reset(); to reset(); or main::reset(), the function is called. However, what I want is to get at least a warning whenever I attempt an ambiguous call, just as the perldiag entry says. Any ideas? ( I have tried explicitly using 'use warnings ambiguous;' - no effect). use strict; use warnings all; reset(); print(OK\n); # -- sub reset { print(resetting...\n); } ___ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs

However, it turns out to have nothing to do with use diagnostics. The warning appears (when compiling as well as executing, which is great), if and only if the subroutine is declared or defined before being called. Compare the following 3 programs: 1. This one generates no warnings, either at compile or run time: use strict; use warnings; reset(); print(OK\n); sub reset { print(resetting...\n); } 2. This one generates the ambiguous call warning AND a prototype mismatch warning: use strict; use warnings; sub reset(); reset(); print(OK\n); sub reset { print(resetting...\n); } 3. This one generates just the ambiguous call warning: use strict; use warnings; sub reset { print(resetting...\n); } reset(); print(OK\n); Everyone - thanks for all your help and interesting discussion. ___ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
